Chapter 4: Reject Your Mate

Danielle

  It hurt me to know that the person I had chosen to be my mate found his real mate. It hurt my ego and even though I wanted to prosecute her the moment I found out that she was his mate, I knew not to do that because I knew he would view me as a dangerous person. He won't want to be my chosen mate, I knew it would be hard for her to do that if I was to kill him. I know he will resent me forever and I doubt if I will be able to use what I have to threaten him. I knew that he would not care about what would happen to what I used to threaten him with. 

“Since you know about her being my mate, I must warn you that…” he was saying but he was interrupted by me. I smirked evilly as I uttered the word. 

 “Warn me? You must be kidding” I said as I stared at him with a playful look on face. 

 I knew exactly what he wanted to say but I didn't want to give him the chance to say it but his persistence made me give him a chance to say it. The look on his face was that of a serious person that if anyone is to see the both of us they will think that we are talking about a serious business. I was happy knowing that he knows what I can do and that he is afraid of what I can do. 

 “Don’t interrupt me,” he said with a stern look on his face, and I felt a cold shrill run down my spine and I couldn't help but feel happy about the whole thing. It is rare for me to see such a scene, the look on his face is something I love to see. I had once seen this and that was when I first threatened him. 

 “I won't, I promise” I said with a smirk wanting to provoke him. I like seeing the frustrated look on his face, it always lifts my mood. 

 “Don’t you dare say a word until I'm done” he said with an angry scowl on his face.

 “I must warn you not to hurt her, you should know that if she gets hurt then it's over!” he said in a deep tone with a threatening look on his face which made him look mean. I don't know what to believe. I had thought that he would still be considerate about his brother even after he found his mate. I had thought that it would be a good opportunity for me since I would be killing two birds with one stone.

 “It seems like you don't want your brother anymore, you don't care about him now since you found your mate. Your brother would be heartbroken to hear that, I bet there is no need in keeping him alive anymore. I guess the only thing I can do now is to kill him, and not only that I might decide to come after one of your family again” I said with a sad smile on my face. 

 I wanted to test if he is still interested in the safety of his brother because I know how hard it will be for him if his brother is to die due to his carelessness. I have been holding his younger brother who is just ten years old hostage for a while now. I have been treating him like I should, and I haven't harmed him in any way but I don't show my face. I have someone taking care of him for me. 

I don't know what I would have done if it turned out that I had hurt my brother-in-law, I knew that it's only a couple of months before I would be able to make him. I had planned on going to bring him over here after I successfully became his mate. After the death of my parents who were killed by rogue's, I have always been trying to make ends meet. My parents wish is that I become the alpha of this pack and marry the one that I love. 

 My parents were killed at the beginning of this year. My father and mother with some warriors waged war against a rogue pack which was just at the outskirts of my pack. They fought the rogue's with the intention of letting peace reign, he doesn't want the rogue's to come to our pack to stop the kidnapping of the kids from this pack. My parents didn't return but when I went to the place where the fight took place I could see the ruins and dead bodies all over the place. I couldn't identify any of them because they were burnt. It looked like a planned work. I don't know what might have happened to them. I thought they were still alive but after a while I was able to give up because everyone felt the bond between us severing. I was made the alpha and I want to make sure that the rogue's are extinct, I don't want them causing any trouble that's why I kill them at sight. I would have killed his mate too if not for the fact that she was connected to him. I didn't stop because of the stupid law issued by the werewolf king. I knew that there is no way I would be agreeing to such laws after everything that has happened to me. 

 “Don't you hear what I just said,” I heard a voice jolting me out of my thoughts and I turned to look at the direction of the person and it turned out to be Carlos who was staring at me with a scared look on his face. 

 “Why the need for that?” I said immediately as I stared at him with a raised eyebrow. 

 “Is my brother's life a joke to you?” he said as he stared at me with an angry look on his face. I feel hurt but there is nothing I can do about it. I know that I can't reveal things to you. 

 “I won't hurt your brother as long as you do what I want” I said with a lopsided smile knowing that there is no way he would be able to refuse my words. I knew that he would follow what I say regardless of it, and although I knew he might show some resistance. 

“What do you want?” he asked and I smirked evilly as I stared at him. I knew that he would do it regardless of what it was. 

 “I want you to reject your mate,” I muttered with a smirk on my face.
